Electus.com - Looking Good!
So, after my very long vacation, I decided to check in on my old friend Ben Silverman's new company - Electus. Now, I've been pretty tough on Electus and Ben Silverman since this venture was announced 11 months ago(!) - so, I went to Electus.com with new hope and got nothing... just an error message.
So I went to the IAC Corporate site and got a blurb on Electus - which gave me a link to this... more nothing:
Look, Ben, I realize Electus.com isn't going to be the final destination for all the brilliant content you produce (I mean, you did create "The Office" - didn't you? Ricky Gervais owes you big time!), but how about a basic Corporate site with a little information?
Even Notional.com put up a logo - but, then again, Ricky Van Veen is a freakin' genius.

About Jill Kennedy
Jill Kennedy is an Ivy League MBA / refugee from Lehman Brothers.
Manka Bros. (and the Manka Business Channel) hired her (for a very low sum) to cover the world of media (not the world of Medea) in her own words without corporate interference.
About Medea
Medea was a real bitch from classical mythology - as most famously dramatized by Euripides.
She was a sorceress and wife of Jason, whom she assisted in obtaining the Golden Fleece. When Jason deserted her, she chopped up their children. One could say, Medea acted as rationally as a major media company.
Tips, Scoops and Smoking Guns
Just wait honey. Ben will prove you wrong. Youve crossed the wrong mom.
I agree with what you said about Ben in an earlier post - it's a production company! He's not changing shit about the business or the future.
Team Ricky.
Sometimes the truth hurts!
